"'10 ACRES OF FLYING CADETS SAN
ANTONIO AVIATION CADET CENTER SAN ANTONIO TEXAS" unused linen
postcard published by the
San Antonio Card Company, browning of paper on the back. $3.00 a(m)t

"1912 AN OBSERVATION BALLOON OF U. S.
Aerial Service, anchored to a vessel. / From this balloon the actions of the
enemy under-sea boats are detected" showing a tethered balloon working from
a ship, unused black & white postcard with good edges. This is the SC-1
(Signal Corps #1) of the US Army, while being tested at Fort Myer Virginia
(hence, its access to the coastal waters), and operating from the first permanent
military airfield in the United States. Excessively rare, there is no record
of its likes being offered anywhere else on the Internet.
It is
astonishing that testing of a then-new military capability from a then-new
military installation would receive any publicity at all in print; we
speculate that the military censors put the kibosh on this ill-considered
idea rather quickly! $75.00

"'Adverse
fortune ever fly thee, / No disastrous fate come nigh thee. / (Duchess of
Malfi, Act III, Scene V) Webster. / UNION JACK INDUSTRIES LEAGUE.
COPYRIGHT" with missing quote in caption as reported here, unused Milton
patriotic World War I postcard, published by Woolstone Brothers (their
Series No. 29), all British manufacture, trivial corner wear. Apparently
rare. The only other example we found was in the Science & Society Picture
Library, and there were no other offers. The archaic 'fly' from the 1613
tragic play would be today's 'flee', which may have been misunderstood by
this postcard's more modern audience & account for its rare sightings.
Sold but front

British aviation manufacturing facility, black & white, regular-postcard

but the aircraft look like WWII Vickers Wellington medium bombers to us --
including the right number of engines, distinctive tail design & requisite
front design. The Wellingtons were the most-produced of the British medium
bombers then, and the scale of the operations we see here lends credence to
our tentative identification. $9.00 ia(m)
